Overview

Introduction

Splitit allows merchants to offer personalized installment payments for their customers anytime and anywhere, using their existing credit card, with no changes to the merchant’s risk.

The Splitit service works as an intermediate layer between the merchant’s platform and their existing payment gateway. New installment transactions are sent to Splitit (instead of being sent to the gateway) and we relay the transaction to the existing gateway.

Our documentation is designed to help programmers integrate with Splitit API as fast and easy as possible, using one of our integration methods.

Splitit Checkout Workflow
In order to better understand how to integrate Splitit into the workflow, it is important to understand the transaction flow while using Splitit:

The shopper inserts their personal details on your checkout page and selects Splitit as the payment method they would like to pay with.

The shopper inserts their credit cards details and chooses the payment period for their installment plan.

The shopper reviews the payment schedule and approves the Splitit T&C’s.

Transaction complete!
*Splitit can be implemented in different ways, depending on how deep you would like to go into the coding, if you are PCI compliant or not, if the UI/UX is the #1 priority in your platform etc.

Note:

For your integration, please make sure you have received the API user credentials for your account and the ApiKey for your terminal/s. If you do not have those parameters, please feel free to contact our on-boarding team at onboarding@splitit.com.

Which Integration Method to Choose?
Splitit allows you 4 ways to integrate with our platform:

Hosted Page
Fast and easy, the hosted solution allows you to let us deal with the transaction while using our pages. You can either redirect the shopper to our Payment Wizard or pop it up as an overlay layer on top of your page. This solution is also recommended if you are not PCI compliance.

Ideal for brick & mortar retailers, our Virtual POS does not require any integration. Through your Merchant Console, you are able to create a new installment plan, insert your customer details, and choose how many installments he/she wants.

Plugins
We also offer several plugins, allowing you to get Splitit in a matter of minutes.
